Search Results - Properties gets bogus path
Posted: 01 Jun 2020 20:43
Folder xxx has subfolders 1 and 2. Subfolder 1 has file 1.txt. Subfolder 2 has file 2.txt:
xxx
....1
.......1.txt
....2
.......2.txt
In folder xxx I use Ctl-F "Find Files" to locate the two .txt files. These appear as expected in a Search Results window.
In that window I select both of them, right-click and choose "Properties", and attempt to make them Read Only. This throws an error because XY looks for the non-existent path xxx\2\1.txt. See the attached screen shot.
I have the tweak "AllowMultiLocShellMenu=1" so the right-click menu will show Properties, but don't think that's relevant to the bad result. This is on XY v20.90.0500 on Win10 x64. The Properties are properly settable in Windows Explorer.
I found this thread which may be the same root issue but it's for Branch View and is complicated by third-party apps:
